Captain David H. cockrilI Dead.

Died, at his residence in this town,
last Tuesday morning about 2 O. clock,
David III. Cockrill, aged 6S years,
of pneumonia.
Captain Cockrill was a carpenter
by trade; the courthouse is mon
ument to his workmanship. Very few
men were better known in this county
He was a public-spirited citizen, and
was always active in whatever con-
cerned the community. He was a
Democrat, not for revenue, but be-
cause he believed in the principles of
his party. He. was a man of convic-
ton and firm as q rock.
When the war broke out he enlisted
in Company a, Second Virginia In
fantfy, Stonewall Brigade" He
was first lieutenant and when Capt.
Rowan retired he commanded the COM
pany. He was afterwards placed in
command of the Pioneer Corps Of the
Second Corps.
His sound judgment and energy
made him invaluable and he was fire.

close of the war he was arrested and
confined in the Old Capital Prison on
the absurd charge that he was ihpli-

He was indicated and released in the
summer of 1865. Since his release
from prison, until two days before his
sudden death, lie followed his trade
in this town and there was seldom Il

invoke his skill. When the alarm of
fire sounded in the night Mr.. Cock

until Old Man Cockrill took COM
